Henna

Yesterday afternoon was the International festival at ISM (the International School Moshi) Arusha campus. Mr B won a game at the Dutch stand and Kitty and I visited the Indian stand.

  1. Hi there,
    That's pretty but please avoid the black henna,it can cause chemical burns because of the paraphenylenediamine added. The natural brown henna is fine but the artificial black henna is one to avoid at all costs. It can also cause allergies to PPD in the future and infection if the skin reacts. Used to sell henna in the belly dance shop so saw alerts about black henna. Sorry to be negative about a nice post but it's maybe not a very well known risk.
